Filtering out page content with AJAX in Sitecore

爷,独闯天下 提交于 2019-12-06 20:55:34

I found a solution that feels a bit better then what other have proposed here. I've created a new Device in Sitecore, created a new layout in it in which I just added one placeholder. Then I can access all site content using this method. And assigning a URL parameter a=1 makes all URLs with this param automatically redirect to this device. I don't think it can be made much simpler.

If you're using Sitecore + ASP.NET Webforms, your quickest/easiest solution is simply to use a .NET UpdatePanel. It's not the most flexible AJAX solution but it certainly gets the job done, with minimal effort. See the documentation.

If you are using XSL Renderings in Sitecore, the solution would be more complicated. You'd likely need to create a new Rendering what just lists the clients, then use JQuery to retrieve and replace that section of the DOM.

From your question, I assume the page will initially display a full list of clients to be filtered down. If so, do you need to fetch any more data from the server? It seems that's duplicating effort. Here's what I'd do:

Create a div for each client, with classes representing the filtering categories:

<div class="client design development">Microsoft</div>
<div class="client design">Apple</div>

Then, when each filter is changed, show/hide the divs based on class selectors. Depending on the target browser and/or js library, you may be able to use CSS attribute selectors.
